It will be interesting to see what the Saints will look like in the post-Sean Payton coaching era. Payton retired from coaching last year and from being the head man in New Orleans after coaching the team from 2006 through 2021.

Payton will always be known as the coach who brought the first Super Bowl championship to New Orleans. The Saints now have promoted Dennis Allen who takes over the helm of the Saints.

After the Houston game, the Saints will travel up to Green Bay to take on the Packers on August 19th for the second preseason game and then will finish up their preseason schedule in the Superdome in New Orleans taking on the Los Angeles Chargers on August 26.

So get excited because football is almost back y'all. We only have a few more weeks to wait until it becomes the best time of the year, football season!
